3rd and 2

How do you not run on a 3rd and 2 with the game on the line. Instead you call a pass play with the chance of INC (clock stops), INT, Strip Sack, so many negative variables than just lining up jumbo and running to the right with 2 hands on the ball. Regardless if you get the first down the clock keeps running. 9.9 out 10 OC's call a run there. Cam never seems to amaze me. I am so dis-trout about that play call. It's bad when your happy your QB takes a sack. So effing pathetic Cam.

Re: Obligatory Fire Cam Thread

Unfortunately the Ravens are 8-2,so Cam stays. LOL That was the Steelers defense that gave up three drives that amounted to 6 points. Tucker missed for 3 points. ST have done well lately and deserved a lot of credit. I'll take the win, like the win the great steelers had against the chiefs last week.

Re: Obligatory Fire Cam Thread

I can't get over that call.

Look, it's really easy to use hindsight to criticize a play call. I'm always hesitant to do that. The screen play on 3rd and 13 looks really dumb when it doesn't work, but if it does, it's a great call. I'm not gonna criticize a play call like that, because what do I know sitting at home watching TV...? Not much. There is a chess match going on and I don't understand the intricacies of it.

But this situation was ridiculous. We had the clear strategic advantage, and WE GAVE OUR STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE AWAY THE MOMENT WE LINED UP IN SHOTGUN. Honestly, I don't even care if it's a pass at the end of the day. I don't. As long as you line up in a formation that MAKES THE DEFENSE PLAY THE RUN. Because the defense knew we'd run... everyone knew we'd run.

Fine, you really wanna pass?!?! Don't line up in shotgun! Jesus, I can't stop. That was high school JV level bad.

Clearly that is the kinda call a coach who rides the short bus makes. You have one of the best RB in the NFL, you have one the best blocking FB in the NFL...its not rocket science, being a contrarian does not make you smart Cam it gets you your seat on the back of the bus....Cam you may resume licking the window...thank you for participating.

How can you defend running it on 3rd and 2 at that point in the game, HOW?

Really?

Just last week you were making fun of the doom and gloomers.

It's a road win against a divisional foe, one that happens to have the best defense in the league.

Cam gets a pass. Especially considering the lack of execution.
